Louis Sachar Quote
He brought his tray to the table. Behind him, a boy from one of the other tents said, Hey, what happened to your face? There was a crash. Stanley turned to see Mr. Sir holding the boy’s head against the oatmeal pot. Is something wrong with my face? The boy tried to speak but couldn’t. Mr. Sir had him by the throat. Does anyone see anything wrong with my face? asked Mr. Sir, as he continued to choke the boy. Nobody said anything. Mr. Sir let the boy go. His head banged against the table as he fell to the ground. Mr. Sir stood over him and asked, How does my face look to you now? A gurgling sound came out of the boy’s mouth, then he managed to gasp the word, Fine. I’m kind of handsome, don’t you think? Yes, Mr. Sir. Out
